Description Koha.Bugz 2023-02-21 20:55:04 UTC
We would like the ability to implement item type names in langauages other than English.  

This type of enhancement would be useful for all duel/multi language Koha sites.

Explanation:

We have a Te Reo version of Koha (as well as an English one) but our item type names display in English on that Te Reo site. We have no way of allocating Te Reo names and have then display in Te Reo on the Te Reo site while keeping them displaying in English on the English site.

Hi, this is already available.

Once you have added your item types in administration, edit them and you'll see a link to add translations in all installed languages right next to the description field.
